AutoBuilder Automated Testing

The AutoBuilder is able to execute automated testing too when the proper configuration is added. The AutoBuilder relies on what the Yocto Project exposes as automated test tools and it doesn't include support for directly executing tests. The AutoBuilder has been used for test execution (runtime, selftests) in the Yocto Project long before it was chosen as the automated test framework over LAVA.
Instructions on how to add tests to the AutoBuilder can be seen here.
